A red-hot iron nail is immersed in a large bucket of water. Although the nail cools down sufficiently to be held bare-handed, the temperature of the water barely increases. Which properties keep the water temperature from changing much?

Answer:

The property of heat conduction is responsible for the heat change in water.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Heat conduction is the property of materials in which heat is transfer in the material from hot to cool side by the micro collisions of particles of materials.
  • In this example as rod is transferred in the water the water molecules get energy by the rod and transfer this energy to whole water.
  • Meanwhile the energy of rod lower that is why rod becomes cool to be held by bare-handed.
